Please don't use your reviews to "aggravate" any patrons, thanks! You can imagine that would only make a situation worse.

These will be deleted. Using the review section to attack/aggravate/comment on other patrons is not allowed.

You may respond to their comments and offer your own, but verbal vomit directed toward other patrons will be censored. This is about the only type of censorship on this website that we don't feel remorse for.

The curators have better things to do and I suspect most of them prefer not to get involved in censorship.

This comment is right on the money. If there's an error report on an item here asking for a review to be removed, it will have to be an extreme example of abuse before it will be considered. Just warning you - I know why you folks are looking for some action here, but it's really considered by the staff as a much bigger issue.

i am so tired of downloading a show with 4 or 5 stars to find out it sounds like my grandmother recorded it from her sewing room 5 miles away from the venue

Please do the community a favor and post these thoughts. There is a serious need for honest reviewers in this collection. Keep your criticisms civil and contructive, and let the rest of us know if there are issues with the sound or if the band had an off night. Too few people have the guts to do this, but the collection has gotten big enough to desperately need it.

-Brad

Hahaha! I know some of my posts come off a little sharp or abrasive. Trust me when I tell you I'm just trying to be clear.

Cheers,

After reading this string I decided to see who was in the hen house and read their reviews. I have included two of your (direwolf2003) "reviews" and want to ask do you think these are show reviews or part of the problem Brad was referring to??

Reviewer: direwolf2003
Subject: tito
Tito is always like this - entertaining in a sick way. The only thing bothering me is that he uses the word "pedophile" (et al) more than the lawyers in the Michael Jackson case. Look in the mirror dude - you just might need to answer some questions. btw - Phil and Friend is awesome - this is a good show - gotta agree that Phil kinda gotta stop singing at some point - sorry Phil, i love ya though. Re: one star rating - Tito that rating was for you not for a wonderful show

Reviewer: direwolf2003
Subject: tito and touch
Hey tito and touch - gotta agree with the other dude. You two are about as much true deadheads as my cat is a nuclear engineer. The number of shows you have seen has NO bearing on what type of deadhead you are. You two a pedestrian at best. I will admit you have had your points on some of your reviews. But your caustic attitude and faulty elitism comes nowhere near the true heads i know and respect. I fully understand that the two of you will read this and smirk, but ive seen around 200 shows and have hung with others from Cali who have been there since '74 - you two belong more with the metal crowd with your attitudes. I truly hope your real life attitudes do not reflect your obnoxious take on reviews and other people. Peace to you both (and maybe a few months supply of Wellbutrin).

Your reviews are by no means the worst of the 2 shows that I pulled them from, but you are the only one who's participating in this thread. My question being if we can't police ourselves how can we go around telling others what they can't write?
Just wondering.

I couldnt agree more - i had two or three days or just kinda gettin aggravated at Tito's attitude. Those two posts are part of the problem - i think they are my only two like that. I used the review board to entertain myself and have since ceased - certainly not trying to be part of the problem - just got caught up in it for a couple of days.

Not sure if they are still there, but you can update/edit your reviews Mr. direwolf2003. :) Maybe go back and help us out?

Hey Brad - good idea - I will remove or edit those to clean up my mess. Should be done today (cant remember why I have two different login names - lol)

think i got rid of them - if any others get noticed let me know and i will delete them myself. My "ripple effect" reviews were certainly not intended to harm the integrity of this great site - thanks

This is what I was referring to as a "rebound" review.

I think of them as "ripple effect" reviews.

-the curators have better things to be doing...-

I totally understand this, I just hope you didn't mind me starting this post. I think this was an 'extreme example' as you mentioned and the main review causing the stir DID get deleted. I think your main post, Brad should be posted somewhere else on the site so more people could read and digest it.

My, aren't we feeling productive today, archive!?
